I’ve been kicking around the idea to start a Location Based Services community in Silicon Valley since the Summer of 2007 and finally I’ve found the time and effort to do it. This group got its inspiration from MobileMonday (www.mobilemonday.net) an open community for mobile. I’ve organized and founded the Seattle and Los Angeles Chapters of MobileMonday and have been gathering people to evangelize mobile since 1999.
Location Based Services is again gaining a buzz and I wanted to form a group that didn’t only focus on Location for Mobile but for Web apps as well. There are many interesting applications for both mobile and web that it merits a group for those with interests and passions for the sector.
Mapping data and location data are finding their ways into some of the most interesting applications and this group is a forum to share, debate, inspire and network in the community.
We are planning our first gathering soon so keep posted.
MISSION
WhereWednesday is a open group for those in the Location Based Services realm. Our slogan is, “If your App has a Map, you are welcome to join.”
The group is focused on users of Mapping Data, Application Developers and Location players in both web and mobile.
